Abstract
The author uses data on household heads from the Public Use Sample of the 1950 U.S. census to analyze the relationship between household income and the probability of suburban residence. The results indicate that "slightly less than half of population suburbanization between 1950 and 1980 can be attributed to rising household incomes." excerptKeywords: Americas; Developed Countries; Economic Factors; Geographic Factors; Income; North America; Northern America; Population; Residence Characteristics; Socioeconomic Factors; Spatial Distribution; Suburbanization; United States; Urban Spatial Distribution; Urbanization
